pretty, happy, funny, real

Happy...how can you not be happy about a rainbow colored gluten free coconut birthday cake?


Funny...sometimes when you are asked to pose pretty the silly just leaks out.


Pretty... This photo, taken by my daughter and stretched canvas style, hangs on my wall.
It makes me smile.

Real...photo shoots can get so tiring.

Pretty, happy, funny, real....Happy, Funny, Pretty, Real
Yes, I know I got the pictures out of order. That is just kinda how life rolls for me right now.


There is a website I follow.
http://ourmothersdaughters.blogspot.com
It is a beautiful site filled with encouragement and light for mom-types of all ages and stages.
I am not catholic so there are some things that I just don't "get" but it is all written with such love and understanding that I feel right at home there.
If I met Auntie Leila or her daughters on the street I would want to just run up and hug them.
I just cannot say enough good about this!
Go check it out.
Like Mother, Like Daughter

Anyway...once a week she hosts a little party. It is called Pretty, Happy, Funny, Real.
If you want to join the party you post things that illustrate those four aspects of your day.
This is my first attempt.

Go check out her stuff. I know I am her mother but seriously...this girly has a gift.
